Maybe in Another Life By Taylor Jenkins Reid


At the age of twenty-nine, Hannah Martin still has no idea what she wants to do with her life. She has lived in six different cities and held countless jobs since graduating college. On the heels of leaving another city, Hannah moves back to her hometown of Los Angeles and takes up residence with her best friend Gabby. Shortly after, Hannah goes out to a bar one night with Gabby and meets up with her high school boyfriend, Ethan.

Just after midnight, Gabby asks Hannah if she’s ready to go. A moment later, Ethan offers to give her a ride later if she wants to stay. Hannah hesitates. What happens if she leaves with Gabby? What happens if she leaves with Ethan?

In concurrent story lines, Hannah lives out the effects of each decision. Quickly, these parallel universes develop into radically different stories with large-scale consequences for Hannah, as well as the people around her. As the two alternate realities run their course, Maybe in Another Life raises questions about fate and true love: Is anything meant to be? Is there such a thing as a soul mate? Hannah believes there is. And, in both worlds, she’s found him.

My Thoughts:

I cannot get enough of Taylor’s books at the minute, this one was just so good. It is about Hannah and how her life changes when she goes back to her hometown, she is not happy where she is living so decides to go and live back home with her best mate. One night when they go out, Hannah sees her boyfriend from when she was at school, but is this fate and what does this mean for the future? Next we see two completely different storylines for Hannah’s future that run alongside each other. It was a very clever idea for a story and it worked really well. I enjoyed seeing what path Hannah could take for her future happiness. It was a really interesting concept and I really enjoyed reading it.
